Graphics Poll! Yes or No?

Im thinking about putting some graphics on my car. Nothing wild and crazy. I want a simple stripe of some sort ~across the door handles~ from the front to rear. Im thinking black with a silver back shadow to help break up the side of the car but match all my carbon fiber. Heres examples of the kinda look I want. *Had to take some photos off the site to get examples. Hope you guys/girls dont mind*

Also, If you think I should do a roll call graphic gimme your opinions on that as an alternative.

Im planning on going with something just like the pink/silver one only in black with a silver drop shadow. Where it comes to a point at the headlight. Starts off with long blocked in the rear and they get smaller.




Heres a pic of my car.

I agree. Some graphics can look like crap but I want it to be tastefull. thats why im posting a poll to get reactions. Ive gotten a lot of local guys saying do it but i want a wider range of thoughts on this. The lancer/evo crowd is a tough one so if its good with you guys its usually a good thing. especially exterior wise.

you have a pic of that? I never saw his.
Its tough because I like the clean look, but a lil something on the side to break up the large expanse that is the lancers side view would look great. Mabey. haha

I figure to each their own. I am a fan of tasteful vinyls, and once I design mine, I am getting them cut.... to me, anything goddy is rice, but tasteful ones with lines that follow the contours are fine. As long as it fits a color scheme, and stays simple, not anything wild, it should look good man. (Glad to know you didn't like the pink look, just the style LOL) IMO, it should look good as that line idea. I designed one similar for a co-worker (I admit it was a bit more goddy then what you were looking at) but I wouldn't say it was ricey tho.... Just chop some on, and do it if you like it.... that's all I can say.

if you were going to do it, i'd vote for a style just like this (and like trooper's):

Yeah. It would probably look just like that only all black. Or black with a drop shadow like I posted. Thanks for all the responses so far.

Yeah if you get one just do all black. Personally I like the way your car looks right now, but its up to you. You could always take it off. Yeah I voted no cause it rarely looks good.
